Colleen Davidson Artistry Full Description
SCOTTISH HAIR & BEAUTY AWARDS - HAIR & MAKEUP SPECIALIST OF THE YEAR 2022
Bridal and occasion makeup is my speciality, and is the very reason I became a makeup artist! Being part of someone’s special day, or helping them get ready for a special event is my favourite part of the job, and I take it seriously – from helping to calm last minute nerves, to providing the final touch ups as you get ready to leave for your special day. I am based near Glasgow, but I am happy to travel to your preferred location on the morning of your wedding.
My aim is to provide you with a first-class makeup experience. I will work with you to create a look that suits your personal style and enhances your natural beauty. Beauty, to me, is about being comfortable in your own skin, and I am a true believer that makeup should be worn to enhance, not mask. For such a special event you want to feel like the best version of yourself, and my job is to help you achieve that!
